  2. 18-Crown-6 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/18-Crown-6

    The dipole moment of 18-crown-6 is solvent- and temperature-dependent. Below 25 °C, the dipole moment of 18-crown-6 is 2.76 ± 0.06 D in cyclohexane and 2.73 ± 0.02 in benzene. [2] The synthesis of the crown ethers led to the awarding of the Nobel Prize in Chemistry to Charles J. Pedersen.

  3. Cyclohexane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclohexane

    Cyclohexane is a colourless, flammable liquid with a distinctive detergent-like odor, reminiscent of cleaning products (in which it is sometimes used). Cyclohexane is mainly used for the industrial production of adipic acid and caprolactam, which are precursors to nylon. [5] Cyclohexyl (C 6 H 11) is the alkyl substituent of cyclohexane and is ...

  4. Cyclohexene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclohexene

    Cyclohexene is produced by the partial hydrogenation of benzene, a process developed by the Asahi Chemical company. [4] The main product of the process is cyclohexane because cyclohexene is more easily hydrogenated than benzene. In the laboratory, it can be prepared by dehydration of cyclohexanol. [5] C 6 H 11 OH → C 6 H 10 + H 2 O

  5. Structural formula - Wikipedia

    Skeletal structural formula of Vitamin B 12.Many organic molecules are too complicated to be specified by a molecular formula.. The structural formula of a chemical compound is a graphic representation of the molecular structure (determined by structural chemistry methods), showing how the atoms are connected to one another. [1]

  6. Newman projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newman_projection

    3D structure A Newman projection is a drawing that helps visualize the 3-dimensional structure of a molecule. [ 1 ] This projection most commonly sights down a carbon-carbon bond, making it a very useful way to visualize the stereochemistry of alkanes.

  7. Cycloalkane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cycloalkane

    Eclipsing of hydrogen atoms is an important destabilizing effect, as well. The strain energy of a cycloalkane is the increase in energy caused by the compound's geometry, and is calculated by comparing the experimental standard enthalpy change of combustion of the cycloalkane with the value calculated using average bond energies. Molecular ...

  8. Skeletal formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skeletal_formula

    The skeletal formula of the antidepressant drug escitalopram, featuring skeletal representations of heteroatoms, a triple bond, phenyl groups and stereochemistry. The skeletal formula, line-angle formula, bond-line formula or shorthand formula of an organic compound is a type of molecular structural formula that serves as a shorthand representation of a molecule's bonding and some details of ...

  9. Benzene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benzene

    Benzene is an organic chemical compound with the molecular formula C 6 H 6. The benzene molecule is composed of six carbon atoms joined in a planar hexagonal ring with one hydrogen atom attached to each. Because it contains only carbon and hydrogen atoms, benzene is classed as a hydrocarbon.
